Thanks for your reply AS, it makes sense. The only thing I'd question is this comment:

Could this be re-writing of history based on recent feeligs in order to justify D? I have a difficult time believing that a couple who stayed in a 20 year marriage were never in love.
Saying "we had it, lost it, and aren't interested in working on getting it back" makes more sense to me.
I'm not looking for an answer to this, just throwing it out there for everyone else to consider on thier journey.
